Have you ever used a #bioinformatics #database and were frustrated by its lack of coverage? Did you ever think about starting your own resource? We just published a new strategy for community-driven #biocuration, based on our experiences with the #MIBiG database (1/8)! doi.org/10.1093/bib/...

We are excited to share another #MegabaseSpark submission, from @hannevdc.bsky.social: "Breaking Protein Interactions for Drug Discovery" (detail in reply) Like and repost if you like this idea! #SynBio #SyntheticBiology

We'd like to share another bid for 100 kb of free DNA, as part of our 3 Mb give-away initiative called #MegabaseSpark. Here submission from @hansgerstmans.bsky.social: "Refactored BGC for Potent Breast Cancer Therapy" (details below). Like and repost if you like this idea! #SynBio #SyntheticBiology

Are you working on natural products? We’ve just released version 4.0 of the MIBiG data standard and repository! It now includes 3059 biosynthetic gene clusters, thanks to the combined efforts of 288 expert contributors. A thread: (1/8) academic.oup.com/nar/advance-...
